Chapter 16: What was the difference?
And now, the scene was Little Shuying, four years and ten months old.
She went to school.
Before school, Yu Ye said the first thing to her.
âIf you want to shine, go and shine as soon as possible. Let the person who lights you know that itâs worth itâ¦â
Little Shadow didnât understand, but what she could understand was that it was worth it for the person who illuminated her.
That year, Yu Ye was thirty-one years old. He was over 1.8 meters tall and weighed 80 pounds. He was as skinny as a piece of wood. His face was always sickly pale because of the pain.
However, when he sent the child to school and said these words to Little Shuying, he stood ramrod straight.
ââââ
In the big class, the other children were crying and shouting because they were so spoiled that they were throwing things everywhere.
Only Little Shuying followed the teacher.
The female teacher liked this serious and obedient child at first glance. She helped herself pick up the chalk and even took the initiative to answer the questions. She had already learned the most basic numbers. She began to ask her teacher about the first year class.
The female teacher was very moved. This was the first time she had seen something different among these children.
It was as if two lights were lit at the same time.
One had to pay for education.
A serious learner.
ââ
This replay also appeared in Qing Huaâs topic selection class.
Professor Zhao Mei couldnât help but exclaim in surprise. She couldnât help but write down something in chalk. Father Yu looked at Yu Shuying, seemingly casually.
[If you want to shine, go and shine as soon as possible. Let the person who lights you know that her lighting is worth it as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will regret it one day
[You may not be able to repay every bit of kindness in this world, so you must shine as soon as possible. Donât linger, donât be afraid, shine as soon as possible to let those who love you feel your light].
These words were like a heavy hammer hitting Zhao Meiâs heart.
This was the first time she had ever seen such a terrible environment.
A sickly, thirty-year-old man actually said such amazing words to his daughter.
This was almost opening the mind of a child.
Telling her,
The light shone on everyone who loved you. You had grown up, and they had been rewarded.
This was the most basic meaning of working hard!
âWhat was Yu Yeâs background? How could he have such knowledge of conversation?â Zhao Mei couldnât help but be shocked.
As for the other students, they didnât care. They just felt that Little Shuying was really sensible and hardworking.
But most old scholars have felt it. With the beginning of this sentence, Little Shuying herself did not know that this sentence will start her life and character journey.
ââ
Even Teacher Luo, who was still broadcasting, couldnât help but speak.
âA lot of people think that this sentence doesnât matter, right? They think that education is jabbering on and on, and that education is teaching you to read?
âHowever, Yu Ye was different. He had woken up his daughter and told her that she should not care what others did. All she needed to do was to shine and illuminate herself, as well as the people who had provided for her. She had to face the sun and not be dispirited!
âBut Iâm not sure if thatâs what Yu Ye thinks, because I donât think Yu Ye has such thoughts under such a poor environment.â
As for the comments, they also agreed.
They all believed that Yu Shuyingâs character was forged by herself.
ââââ
And now, the scene continued.
In this scene, Little Shuyingâs first class was over.
After school, because there was no kindergarten in the slum area, Yu Ye registered her in the city.
While the other parents were driving their luxury cars, Yu Ye was riding an electric car.
Little Shuying got into the car and Yu Ye said, âYour mother missed you. Letâs go take a look.â
Little Shuying nodded. The scooter arrived in front of a solitary grave in the suburbs. There was only the word âmotherâ written on it.
There were no names or any other records.
Little Shuying obediently placed the paper boat in front of the tomb, while Yu Ye spoke softly.
âYour mother is saying that she saw a weak light emitting from you, but itâs too weak. You have to shine and be different from the others.
âYour mother also said that you must see the light and the great person. This person will tell you what kind of person you should be.â
Little Shuying didnât understand, but she only knew one thing. Her mother was definitely right.
She only remembered that she had always wanted to find this person.
But it wasnât easy.
So, she started to shine.
She illuminated herself and others.
So she began to try to be such a great person.
At this moment, when she was less than five years old, Yu Shuying was no longer the quiet little girl in the small room. Her heart began to light up.
Adhere, believe,
This was her first time in school, and every kindergarten teacher loved her to the bone. This kind of child was too outstanding.
And no one knew that in that remote corner, Yu Ye stood quietly and occasionally took her to see her motherâs grave. Then, he guided her quietly and said, âYou have to shine as soon as possibleâ¦â
However, Little Shuying did not remember and subconsciously forgot about her father who was hiding in the dark. She subconsciously thought that this was what her mother had taught her, that this was what she had believed.
And under the dark night, a fatherâs arms held up the sky.
Letting the light of Little Shuying slowly burn.
â
Zhao Mei had taken off her glasses in Qing Huaâs college education class. She had planned to attack her father, but now she suddenly thought of something.
This was a slum area.
This was an ordinary kindergarten.
This was a competition between a group of children.
But Zhao Mei thought to herself,
What was the difference between these children and Little Shuying?
âNo, only the father is different.â
